Answer:

The flavouring in the aspirin, passage time and excessive dose– can cause the alleviation of Jeff's headache.

Explanation:

Jeff  took two different flavoured aspirin to treat his headache but his headache alleviated after taking the fourth dose of the aspirin. The chemicals used to add the flavor in the aspirin might have shown positive result in Jeff's body. Jeff had taken four doses of aspirin which might have also shown additive effect in the body and resulted in the alleviation of headache . Time had also passed since the consumption of first dose so that might have decreased his headache.

Further explanation:

  • Aspirin is also known as acetyl salicylic acid. This drug is used to treat headache, fever and pain.  Inflammation and disease like kwashiorkor can be treated by aspirin.
  • Aspirin has an anti coagulating property that is given to heart attack patients and can also work as analgesic.  
  • Aspirin must not be taken on an empty stomach. If taken it can cause stomach ulcers and stomach bleeding.
  • If aspirin is taken frequently it can alleviate pain rapidly but may cause some side effects and its excessive dosage can increase the symptoms of the disease.
  • Many flavouring agents are also used in aspirin. They are used to add flavors, smell and may also increase the positive effect of aspirin.
  • Hence, it can be concluded that Jeff's headache was alleviated by the excessive dosage, frequent time passage and the presence of the flavouring agent.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

<em>His decreased residual volume and decreased lung compliance contribute to his altered ventilation. </em>

Explanation:

Pneumoconioses are distinguished by reduced residual volume and impaired compliance with the lungs.

Pneumoconiosis involves asbestosis, silicosis, and the pneumoconiosis (CWP) of coal workers.

The most prevalent mineral dusts proven to cause pneumoconiosis in the workplace are asbestos, silica (rock and sand dust), and coal dust.

Cough and shortness of breath are by far the most common symptoms of pneumoconiosis. The threat is usually greater when people are exposed to high levels and/or long periods of time from mineral dusts.

One risk factor is the insufficient or inconsistent usage of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as respirators (specially designed breathing masks), as avoiding inhalation of dusts would also avoid pneumoconiosis.
